Kansas City has opened its FIFA Fan Festival, transforming the National World War I Museum and Memorial grounds into an 18-day celebration of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The free event, running from June 11 to July 11, is the host city's official fan gathering spot for the World Cup, featuring over 30 live matches, including all six matches hosted in Kansas City.
Advance registration is required, and organizers have warned that capacity is limited.
The festival boasts a 45-foot-by-25-foot primary video board, a second stage for live performances, and a grand 65-foot-tall heart-shaped entrance.
Notable performances include Tech N9ne, The Chainsmokers, and special Dog Days family events.
Kansas City's six World Cup match days are June 16, June 20, June 25, June 27, July 3, and July 11.
The venue is accessible via the KC Streetcar, bus routes, bike transit, nearby Union Station, and major highways.
